Your gateway to the BaaS Universe!
A monthly exploration of embedded payments, Banking-as-a-Service and fintech ecosystem, as well as practical use cases.
Farewell, Jean — Welcome, JOS!
This month, we bid farewell to our CEO, Jean Guillaume , who has been instrumental in shaping Xpollens over the past six years. Under his leadership, Xpollens grew into a state-of-the-art BaaS platform, adapting to the diverse needs of our clients, from corporates to startups. Jean’s vision and dedication laid the groundwork for our expansion, helping us to tackle key projects and build a resilient team united by values of solidarity and excellence. We will miss him dearly but wish him all the best in his next venture.
Taking the helm now is Jacques-Olivier Schatz (JOS ??), who has been a crucial part of Xpollens' journey as General Manager for the last 18 months. His leadership, insight, and strategic mindset will drive Xpollens through its next phase of hypergrowth. As JOS puts it, "Our mission is to continue to strengthen our position and innovate in an ever-competitive market."
With a clear vision for expanding embedded payment solutions across Europe, and with the trust of our key clients, we are excited to see where this new chapter will take us!
